Wireless printing is a trash fire, I agree. But I never really got the point of making the printer (a device not known for moving around frequently) connect via wireless (a networking method explicitly designed for clients that move).

Just connect it to the goddamn router (RJ45 or USB, either way). How many times do your move your loving printer?
yep especially since you can just place the printer next to your desktop, like the one place where you might ever want to print something

also the older hp/brother monochrome laser printer will be the one computer related thing that you will never have to replace as you go from pwning your brother in doom mp to punching demons in doom (2016)


laserjet 4 still works under windows 10 through a virtulusb port thing and a parallel-usb converter
